The 30 suites are spread over 15 bungalows, each with king-sized beds custom-made for Little Palm Island, along with ocean views and peaceful patios where you can enjoy the soft breezes. Some of the suites add on outdoor showers, with the utmost of privacy of course, and whirlpool bathtubs. Guests also find relaxation at the spa, simply called SpaTeerre. Here, treatments are designed for health as well as beauty, combing elements from Thailand and Bali.

Little Palm Island Ferry

If you’re not arriving at the resort on your own boat and mooring at the marina, you will need to secure a ride to the Little Palm Resort. Luckily, the resort takes really good care of its guests. A welcome station on neighboring Little Torch Key, about 25 miles from Key West, serves as a ferry terminal. The yacht departs every hour for the 12 hours between 9:30 a.m. and 9:30 p.m. Some guests work with a local captain to secure a ride to the secluded island.

Little Torch Key

The resort’s bigger neighbor is still pretty small in size, but it doesn’t mean it’s small in things to do. Named for the torchwood tree, a bright green shrub common to the Caribbean, Little Torch Key is an excellent place for sampling the natural side of the Florida Keys. Diving and snorkeling are very popular, especially at the nearby Looe Key National Marine Sanctuary. Back on shore, you’ll find a handful of restaurants and boutiques on the quiet island, perfect for enjoying.
